TREE wardens from across the region will be descending on North Somerset next month to take part in the Tree Warden Forum.

The forum is being held on October 7 at Long Ashton Community Centre, in Keedwell Hill, and will feature a number of talks hosted by representatives from the Ancient Tree Forum, the Tree Advice Trust and the Tree Council.

Afternoon workshops will also take place around Gatcombe Court. The aim of the forum is to provide updates on national changes that will have an impact on local trees.
